Gainey McKenna & Egleston Announces A Class Action Lawsuit Has Been Filed Against Ocular Therapeutix, Inc. (OCUL)

NEW YORK, July 10, 2017 -- Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Ocular Therapeutix, Inc. (“Ocular” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:OCUL) in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey on behalf of a class consisting of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Ocular stock on the open market from May 5, 2017 through July 6, 2017, inclusive (the “Class Period”), seeking to recover compensable damages caused by Defendants’ violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The Complaint alleges that Defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Ocular Therapeutix’s management has been misleading investors about DEXTENZA manufacturing issues, including that more than 50% of lots manufactured by Ocular Therapeutix contain bad product; (2) such manufacturing issues could imperil the approval of DEXTENZA by the FDA; and (3) as a result, Defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than September 5, 2017.  A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.  If you wish to join the litigation, or to discuss your rights or interests regarding this class action, please contact Thomas J.
